<p>Is it not the a great and cruel irony that essay questions like "why do you want to come to Penn" make you delve even further and make you love that place more. you start thinking "I would love to take this class" or "this program sounds right for me" or "free elective!" ; then you step out and realize that theres a 10% chance of getting in. Are you really better than 90 (out of a 100) other people gunning for it just like you? (maybe I should have done this for my Chicago essay). Also, the CAS is about 11% acceptance, according to some stats.</p>
<p>I am sure some people will call this worthless. And part of me says this is a stupid thing to be doing. The other part says **** it, I want to discuss this worthless topic with someone else. </p>
<p>There must be someone else like me who has thought this.</p>
